:)

I think it's a pretty good day today, considering the dramas going on in my life recently. For the first time I attended a friend's commencement all by myself. It was Chris'. It occurred to me that we don't really have any common friends now. But I thought it was worth going still, so I went. I'm glad I did. Because he has shared big and small news with me for the past few years. I figured I might be an important friend to him after all. It's been a decade. From the prefect who would command "sekolah sedia" at the podium to the man today who is about to settle down with his right girl. Certainly worth celebrating. 

So worn out today, I only managed six laps in the pool (with much effort) instead of the usual minimum ten. Climbing stairs was also so much of a chore. Seriously... But I'm happy! I bumped into Ms Rachel Lim today!!! Since I knew about her departure when I received my O Levels cert, I never saw her again. I had always wanted to thank her for her patience during sec four and finally, I thanked her today! It was really good to see that she's doing great. It's like bumping into an old friend and knowing the old friend is doing well. 

Really thankful it was a great Tuesday.

On CNY

This CNY, I realised many things. I realised I have always envied families who go out as a whole for CNY visiting, or those who invite many relatives and friends over. I realised I am very afraid of the coming of CNY because CNY simply means watching movies and slacking at home for me. I love to watch movies, there is no doubt about that. Perhaps I just don't appreciate the latter because there is so much to face head-on. I hate the silence or otherwise awful hurlings at the dining table. I hate how I need to pretend to be hospitable to people I dislike. This year, I hid in my room when people I did not feel comfortable with came, then I was accused of being stubborn and impolite. Sometimes I really wonder if being myself is of imperative or being polite is. Whichever the case, I want to confess that I really feel tired and unhappy this CNY. The worst is that I feel that no one can understand because everyone I tried to rant this to tells me I should go home because it is CNY after...

On campus,

I think even if I were to leave after this semester, I would probably leave with the fondest memories. What more can I ask for? On a side note, I hope and I choose to believe that my true friends will understand, and so I do not want to explain. Today is my best friend's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BF! I know you know I am damn stubborn and rebellious and whiny and spoiled and noisy and choosy but you always compromise with me and give in to me in every way you can. Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! I hope you will always be happy because you deserve to be. I hope you will gamble less so that you can treat me food more often. I hope you will be blessed because you are special :) I know I am such a sweet best friend! 加油了GL,不要再蹉跎歲月了…
